MIPOW: Meet the Most Influential Players of BBNaija Season 11
Influence matters in Big Brother Naija Show Ya Sef. Here’s what it takes to become MIPOW and what it means for the game.
Every week, one Housemate is crowned the Most Influential Player of the Week (MIPOW) after their fellow Housemates score them based on their energy, effort and entertainment. The winner is announced every Sunday

The MIPOW Prize Pot
The MIPOW Prize Pot grows whenever money is deducted from the main cash prize. Every naira deducted from the ₦100 million cash prize is transferred into the MIPOW Prize Pot, which will eventually be shared equally among the weekly MIPOW winners.
Current MIPOW Prize Pot: ₦5 million
After the Live Nominations, Sheba said she is more shocked when Big Brother let her (Nomy) get away with things.
Flora, Oyin, Ricky, Tram are together. Tram said Nomy should have just apologised to Biggie. He added that her ego is too big. He said that he is disappointed in Nomy because she have tried to be in the house four times and she is here finally and she does this.
According to him, he has tried to speak to her to act remorseful even when she is not. Oyin said this one pained her.
8:00 pm – Tram starts acting up as HoH
Tram said: “So my baby is gone just like that.”
He told Keivo that they have never fought in the house so why would he take his save (during Live Nominations) away. He told Keivo that he worked for it.
Keivo said he knew that if it was switched he would have replaced him with Ricky. Tram told him the person he would not want to save is Ricky.
According to Tram, the HoH title is a perfect clap back. He said he knows that bitch did not want him to win.
Tram is shared his HoH treats – pizza and chicken – with the housemates.
Keivo and Aikou is in the Games Lounge. Keivo told Aikou: “So I am not seeing Nomy in this house again, WTF.” Aikou said: “I swear that hurt me.”
In the kitchen, Tram is with Ricky and Sheba. He said that the way sugar was finish last week is not normal. Sheba said the sugar did not finish. Ricky chimed in and said someone stole sugar.
Bluethopia asked Tram why he is taking sugar to the HoH Loft. Tram said: “You will do what you want when you are a HoH yourself. Let me run my regime the way i want to.” He said if you want sugar you come to me.
